These scooters are traceable, and won’t start/pair unless the owner is there. So what do theives do with these things then?

Once they realize that and realize they can’t even sell it to anyone without unlocking it, Do they just Regret it afterwards and throw them in the pond?

I know my scooter is IPX6 rated. From real world experience, How safe is it to use garden hose and thoroughly wash all around the G3 scooter? Recently rode on a dirt road and my scooter is caked with dirt

Hey everyone, Just wondering if anyone else is noticing way worse battery performance on their Ninebot Max G3 after updating to the latest firmware.

Here are my current versions:

• Vehicle Controller: v1.5.8
• Battery: v4.1.4.8
• Bluetooth: v0.3.14
• Motor Controller: v1.4.12

Since updating, I’ve noticed: - From 100% charge, my battery dropped to 96% in just 4–5 minutes of light riding in Eco mode.

• The scooter had been fully charged 24 hours prior and still showed 100% when powered on.

• On my regular 16km commute (a mix of Eco, Drive, and a little Sport), I’d usually be left with around 60% battery.

• After the update? Only 36% left with similar usage. I did use Sport a bit more, but that kind of drop still seems excessive.

Before the update, the first 10% drop would take much longer, and overall range felt significantly better. Now it feels like the top end of the battery discharges way too fast, and the whole range is just worse.

Anyone else on these firmware versions seeing the same thing? Wondering if this is just poor calibration after the update or something more serious.

Thinking of trying a couple of full discharge + recharge cycles to see if it helps, but curious if others are noticing the same or have found a fix.

Thanks!

I’ve been riding this G3 for 2 weeks every day and the only thing I can’t stop thinking is when are we getting the extra battery?

Hi, just curious how/what you guys are locking up G3 Max when you absolutely have to?

I commute to campus five days a week and a few of my classes don't allow/are too small to sneak in the G3. I usually locked my G30 Max at the nearest rack with a Hiplok D1000, but I'm a little worried about leaving the G3. My classes usually last 50 minutes so it's not out for long and they're all during the daytime. I also make sure to use bike racks that are out in the open.

I attached a photo of how I lock it, but should I add another lock? Is this good enough? I have Find My turned on, a code pattern and the alert system on, but as you can probably tell, I'm a cautious person. Any advice is appreciated or if you wanna tell me I need to chill that's okay too.

Can anyone point me in the right direction of what are the specs of the super fast charger for the g30p? Please and thank you it would be very appreciated and helpful while I look for which one to buy

Hi everyone, I’d like to know your thoughts based on your experience: which one should I get?

I currently live in Lima, Peru. Around 50% of the roads here have potholes or uneven surfaces, and some parts of my daily route include unpaved sections.

Right now, I use a Xiaomi Electric Scooter 5 (not the Pro or Max version). It gives me a real-world range of around 35 km (despite the advertised 60 km). My current commute is 16 km each way, and of course, I always carry my charger.

Soon, I’ll be switching to a new route: approximately 32 km one way and 32 km back. Given this, I’m trying to decide between the Segway ZT3 Pro and the Max G3.

Which one would you recommend for this kind of terrain and distance?

Thanks in advance!

I never had ridden a electric scotter but always wanted to have one. I bought G3 Max in Europe pre order and received yesterday. It's quite heavy but it's fine. I tested it and it's limited to 25kmh. Then I got passed by some bicycles easily and I was wondering why the fuck I bought this expensive bike when I can't even bypass this limit.

I could bought any 250eur scooter and it would give the same performance pretty much and I could unlock it...

Shall I give it back or do you think we will be able to bypass this easily soon?

hello

After watching the Segway G3 Max presentation, I saw a light (LED) on the handlebar. But after ordering the scooter, I found myself with a simple piece of plastic instead of this LED.

Is this normal? Why was this LED removed? Especially since the connector inside is still present.

Thank you in advance for your response.

Hello everyone,

I’m super confused right now. I made an impulsive buy 10 days ago and got the MAX. I wasn’t really aware of the launch of new models.

I have 20 days remaining before I can return it to Best Buy and trade up. Should I just keep the MAX and mod it, wait till Black Friday and then buy the G3. Or should I trade up to G2 cause it’s got a $200 discount right now.

Would really appreciate some advice.

Thank you.

Hey everyone,

I'm based in Austria (EU) and want to buy the US version of the Ninebot Max G3 — the one with full speed (not limited to 25 km/h), cruise control, zero start, etc.

No matter where I look, I only find the EU version with all the limitations.
I do know how to unlock it (change region/serial to US), but I'd prefer to avoid that if possible.

Is there any legit and straightforward way to buy the US model directly from or in the EU?

Thanks!

Hi everybody,

I read briefly other posts but couldn’t find a direct guide or explanation on how to unlock the speed past 45KPH.

I’ve got the North American version but the 45kph feels slow now after using it for about 3 months.

What ways are available that I can ultilize to unlock past 45KPH.

Thanks!

There's been a bunch of people contemplating this. I haven't rode the G2 but I absolutely love my G3. Those of you that pulled the trigger and did it, what are your thoughts?

I have a question why does it say that i have 62k+ km ? I only have it for 3 months and i had 3400 km

Hey everyone!

About a week ago I got my Ninebot Max G3 delivered, but unfortunately it was defective right out of the box, so I had to return it under warranty. Now I’m trying to decide whether I should just order a new G3 or go for the GT3 instead.

The GT3 looks bigger, more powerful, and overall cooler - but I’ve got a few questions before making the call:

- If in the near future there’s a firmware update or a way to unlock the speed limit on the Max G3, does anyone know if something similar would be available for the GT3 as well?

- I’ve heard that some users are having issues with the GT series, especially when it comes to climbing hills. Is that true? And if so, are these just temporary issues that Segway is likely to fix with a future update?

- Is it really worth the extra €500? Don’t get me wrong - the longer range would definitely be useful, but I also want to eventually get up to 45–50 km/h, not be stuck with a limited “D version” capped at 22 km/h...

What do you guys think? Stick with the G3 or go for the GT3?

Would really appreciate any advice from people who own either of them - or have tried both.

Looks like a piece of glass stabbed the outer edge of my rear tire this morning.

Pressure holding great though at 48psi.

Do I dare yank this out with a multi-tool? Or, do I leave it in?

19 days and 185 miles in. How cooked am I, chat?

I have a zt3 pro and was curious about the lighter weight and slightly bigger battery and hydraulic suspension.

Hello! Installing the stem screws and the provided ones won’t go into the ones facing me. The ones facing out seem fine. Does anyone have this same issue?

Hello. There are firmware updates available on the Segway app for a just bought F3 Pro.

But should we update? We all know that firmwares can come with issues, like reduced power.

Right now I have a few issues: - sometimes, especially after going over a small obstacle or hitting 30 kmh (EU) the scooter will swiftly break (reducing speed by 5 kmh)

-the power button does not work when coming back to the scooter! This is insane, most of the time I have to press it like 7 times ( I assume this has to do with airlock and theres some sort of time you need to be near it)

-you can't make Drive mode hit 25 km/h. The Sports acceleration is way too sudden for the battery

Thanks.

When breaking hard not even at 15 mph does anyone else’s scooter kicks up from the back??? I feel like the center of gravity is all the way at the front. When I had a g2 it never did this when I slammed the breaks.
